The affective element of learning refers to student attitudes and mindsets thatcan influence their thinking and behaviors, ultimately impacting their learning and academicperformance.Learning and persistence in higher education, and engineering education specifically, areinfluenced by many internal and external factors [5], [6], [7]. For example, Geisinger and Raman[7] identify six factors driving students to leave engineering: classroom and academic climate,grades and conceptual understanding, self-efficacy and self-confidence, high school preparation,interest and career goals, and race and gender.

Further, women who choose STEM majors are almost twice as likely as mento leave that major due to an unwelcoming culture or lack of engaging introductory courses [11].While it appears that some sex- and racially-based barriers have been removed as students movefrom secondary school through the university, the shortage of women and minorities in STEMcareers remains relatively intractable.There is a growing body of evidence that hidden biases in the workplace contribute to theleakage of women and minorities from STEM-related industries [2].
